Speaking on the occasion, Swapnil Jain, Co-founder and CTO of Ather Energy, said that crossing 5,00,000 scooters is a major achievement for the company.
“From our very first prototype to today, our journey has been about building not just vehicles, but a scalable, reliable, and consistent manufacturing ecosystem. This milestone reflects years of focused engineering, rigorous testing, and meticulous attention to quality at every stage of production. It also highlights the dedication of teams across the company and the trust and support of our owner community, who have been with us throughout this journey,” he said.
Ather has developed a strong portfolio of performance and family scooters, with the Rizta emerging as a core pillar of growth, accounting for over one-third of total production volumes.
The company has recently expanded its presence across Middle and North India, focusing on tier 2 and tier 3 cities, alongside major metropolitan markets.
Ather currently operates two manufacturing facilities in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, one dedicated to vehicle assembly and the other to battery production, with a combined annual capacity of 4,20,000 scooters.
To meet growing demand, the company is setting up its third manufacturing facility, Factory 3.0, in Bidkin, AURIC, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra.
The facility will be developed in two phases and built on Industry 4.0 principles, integrating advanced digital technologies into the manufacturing process.
Once fully operational, Factory 3.0 will increase Ather’s total installed capacity across all facilities to 1.42 million electric two-wheelers annually.
This milestone reinforces Ather Energy’s position as a leading player in India’s electric mobility sector and underscores its continued focus on innovation, quality, and scaling sustainable transportation solutions.
